It only felt like it had been days ago that the previous game against Hufflepuff had concluded, and yet the lions were back again, ready to take on Ravenclaw. That didn't mean, however, that they were necessarily unprepared for the game ahead. It was likely going to be a bit brutal, but that was the nature of the sport. Trying to keep a positive mindset was all part of the job, and they were going to at least try to inspire their teammates.

Summoning their team together, they out even more energy and adrenaline into their voice, hoping it would make their words seem even more inspiring. "Ok Lions," they began. "I know this might not be an easy game, but we sure as hell are gonna do our best to give them a tough fight at least. I know there's a couple of seventh years, and we would maybe wanna send them off on a good note, but it's not the last game of the season so that's not on us. They can afford a defeat, and I believe that we can give it to them. Remember what we discussed in training. Keep your wits about you, don't let them surprise you, and keep a calm head. We can do this, ok?"

After letting Ethan add anything that he wanted to say, they nodded along before grabbing their broom. "LETS GO LIONS!" they cheered, preparing to begin.

- In the role of Beater, if an ALLY dodges a bludger during the round, there is a 20% chance that you catch that bludger with your bat and you send it at a RANDOM enemy target.

It's that time again. A time for cheer, a time for fun, a time for controlled destruction. The air was filled with the excited energy of quidditch spectators waiting to witness what athletic feats of teenage chaos the houses of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw had in store for them today. Yea, though the lion is mighty, the cubs of scarlet and gold would soon learn that the sky belonged to the Eagle. Fights on!

A cold rain fell on the morning of Frederick’s second official match, as he and his fellow Gryffindors faced the blue and silver team of Ravenclaw. In the previous game, he had spent almost the entire time on the bench, only taking to the pitch to be knocked out by a Bludger shortly afterward. Fred felt a bit bad about tha, but not remembering exactly how it had happened helped soften the sting. That was, until he remembered they’d lost badly. Still, it was wiser to leave that in the past. This was a new day.

Pax’s words, the team captain, lifted the boy’s spirits even as he remained on the bench. He headed there with positive thoughts, not feeling particularly nervous, and hoping to stay that way the entire match, especially if he ended up having to take the field. Frederick set his broom beside him and got ready to watch the game, trying to match faces to the Ravenclaw players’ names he’d learned during practice. He knew he didn’t recognize any of them; they were all older and more experienced. Even so, it didn’t discourage him. He trusted his team.

Well, this weather certainly wasn't the most ideal. Aston thought as he looked at the sky from the pitch. He sat himself down on the bench, swallowing down the nervousness he felt, though it wasn't for this match but the one later, his first time as a captain moderating a quiddich match. No matter, this match is going to be his priority right now, and he is going to cheer for his team as loud as he can from the bench.

Second game of the season and Kora had hope in the team for this one. Dispite their loss last game everyone seemed in good spirits happily getting into position for the game to start. Kora took a breath before kicking off eyeing the farmiliar goal posts she would guard with her life.

Rosaline stepped into the Quidditch Stadium. Her heart was pounding. It was her second official Quidditch game; she should feel more prepared now. Yet, this was her first time being a first-string player. She deeply hoped she could perform well. As a first-year student, she really hoped she wouldn’t be a burden to her teammates. She always had these types of worries in her mind. Shaking her head, the young girl got rid of the idea. She should focus on the game first.

The tension was high. There were so many people already seated on the stand, cheering and chatting. Also, she saw some familiar faces near her, Fred and Avery. She waved at them with a bright smile, suppressing her nervousness. Rosaline didn’t know when she would get used to the feeling of adrenaline.

The Gryffindor team gathered together. Their captain, Pax, had given them a promising speech. Rosaline clenched her fists, feeling more determined by it. We got this. She thought to herself. Her face became serious. Then she grabbed her Comet 180, ready to soar to the sky in any minute.

Ethan's nose twitches as he sneezes into his elbow. “ACHOO—! ...ah bless me,” he mutters, wiping the snot on the sleeve of his jersey with zero shame. Pax has already said something encouraging, but Ethan thinks he should offer a few things of his own. “Alright, guys...” The beater starts as he rests the weighty bat on his shoulder, “we've been working hard in training, and I know we're all hungry to win this thing. So now it's time to prove ourselves on the field!!!”

Broom: Firebolt (+4 to accuracy)

• In the role of Beater, if you hit an opponent with a bludger the bludger will then ricochet off that user and target a second opponent of choice (must be declared, if not declared the target will be random and can be an ally but not yourself).
• In the role of Beater, if an ALLY dodges a bludger during the round, there is a 20% chance that you catch that bludger with your bat and you send it at a RANDOM enemy target.

Stats:

Abilities:
1. Broken Broomshaft

• Bludger attacks that knock a player off a broom (KOB) made by players with this ability have a 25% chance to also break said player's broom. Bludgering, bludger backbeats, and richochets apply.

2. Calming Presence (Gryffindor team)

• Allies gain a 10% chance to auto-hit on all actions needing an accuracy vs evasion roll. This does not stack.
